Tale of the (Consolidated) Tape
This panel session provides an examination and overview of the concept of a consolidated tape and its prospects in Europe.  We'll look at the experiences in the U.S. with a consolidated equities feeds - the benefits and opportunities provided as well as the challenges and limitations faced with a single feed.  We'll view the current post-MiFID environment with MTFs and ask if market participants would benefit with the creation of a European consolidated tape.  We'll explore the costs of creating a consolidated tape and inquire if a "one-size fits all" solution works best.
